Narrowing paths – transgressive routes

Youth in changing times: new forms of inequality, risk and resistance

Nordic Youth Research Symposium (NYRIS) in Aarhus 14 - 16 August 2019

The lives of young people are still fundamentally precarious. Unemployment rates are still high; mental health problems among young people are still endemic and new forms of marginalization and social exclusion continue to be generated.

Increasing numbers of young people are pushed to the edge of society; the difference between the powerful and the less powerful continues to widen and populist and nationalistic movements increasingly challenge established institutions and accepted understandings of democratic institutions.

We invite you to join us and participate in examining these critically important discussions at NYRIS 14, 14-16 August 2019 at Aarhus University .
